7. NEWROZ - THE HAPPY FACE OF KURDISTAN

As I promise, I would like to show you something else today. I would like to show you, that Kurdistan is not only prosecutions, killings, sadness and tears of people. Despite all these things that Kurds experienced in their life - things still happening there - Kurds are not  peevish, tired of life and full of hate people. In contrary - they are full of life, full of faith in better tomorrow, friendly, kind-hearted. Because Kurdistan - means wonderfull, colourfull culture with joyfull music, delicious food, colorfull, great national clothes. 21st of March - is very important holiday for all Kurds - the festival of joy and hope - NEWROZ.

Newroz in kurdish language means "new day" and its considered as a new year, connected to new life which starts to wake up in early spring time. People have fun for more than one day - usually between 18th and 24th of march. at that time Kurds with their families going outside the cities and towns, to beutiful places with great kurdish nature around, where they make celebrations with music, dancing, cooking food and having all kind of fun. The symbol of Newroz is fire, that at Newroz you can see it all over the country.
Till now I had no chance to experience Newroz in Kurdistan, but I keep deep and strong hope that I will be able to celebrate it in the near future, coz when I watch it on kurdish channels I feel it must be unforgettable experience.
Let me to quote the words of Chahlin B.Sorekli, which says what is Newroz for kurdish nation:
"Newroz is the symbol of struggle and resistance
For a nation deprived of freedom and peace;
The desire to create a New Day
In a country by force divided, 
In darkness for years.
Newroz is a page of world history 
Forged and locked behind iron gates;
For the Kurds a book written by sacred blood
Scattered over every corner of a land
Where pure white snow begins to melt in March
And the yellow bright sun of Zoroastra in spring
Turns the land of the Medes into a green carpet.
Newroz is the fury of those massacred in Ararat;
The cries of those in Dêrsim burned in closed caves;
The sighs of mourning mothers and wives
Whose husbands and sons were hanged in Mahabad;
The agony of the five thousand gassed in Halabja;
The pain of the two million fleeing tyranny.
Newroz is the living dream of those who died
So that others may live free;
The return of the sun;
The defeat of darkness;
The hope for a better tomorrow
In Kurdistan: Homeland of the Kurds. "
(March 1992)

Hi! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing several
weeks of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any solutions to stop hackers?
